Candy Life
The series is by manga-ka OGAWA Yayoi, and was published in 2000 by Kodansha. It is a one volume series, and can be considered a prequel to her hit Kimi wa Petto (Tramps Like Us in English release).
Candy Life tells the story of Makoto, who dreams of having a sweet life with a rich, handsome man. She's down on her luck, miserable, jobless, and out of hope. Then, in a drunken stupor, she falls into the ocean and is saved by a rich, upper-class man. This may just be her shot at the sweet candy life she's been dreaming of. (Summary from ANN)
I love the series because it is funny, sweet, sexy and compelling. In only one volume, Ogawa-sensei tells a fun love story, with compelling characters and well thought-out plot. This is a must-read for fans of Ogawa, or the Tramps Like Us series.
